Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Hot water
• 0.25 cup Carrot (grated)
• 0.25 cup Spinach (chopped)
• 0.33 cup Paneer (crumbled, can be substituted with tofu for vegan option)
• 1 small Green chilies (finely chopped, optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Garam masala
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Ghee or coconut oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, and salt. Mix well.

Step 2

Gradually add hot water to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously, until a firm dough forms. Knead the dough for a minute, then cover it with a damp cloth and set aside for 10 minutes.

Step 3

To prepare the filling, combine grated carrot, chopped spinach, crumbled paneer (or tofu for vegan), green chilies (if using), cumin powder, garam masala, and cilantro in a bowl. Mix thoroughly.

Step 4

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each into a ball.

Step 5

Place a ball of dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it out gently with a rolling pin to form a small circle, about 5-6 inches in diameter.

Step 6

Place a portion of the filling in the center of the rolled-out dough. Bring the edges together to seal the filling inside, forming a pouch.

Step 7

Gently flatten the stuffed dough ball and roll it out again between parchment paper, being careful not to tear the dough.

Step 8

Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add a little ghee or coconut oil.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the rolled-out stuffed paratha to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 10

Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.

Step 11

Serve hot with yogurt, pickle, or a low-carb dipping sauce of your choice!
